Tools and Resources

Cancer doesn’t only affect the person with cancer; it affects the lives of the people who surround them as well. Whether you're a caregiver to your child or partner, a family member or a loved one, we know you have questions and concerns. We’re here to help you find answers. While many of our resources speak directly to those diagnosed with cancer, this information can be helpful for caregivers.

Cancer that has grown and spread to vital organs is called advanced or metastatic cancer. Making advanced cancer decisions can be difficult and emotional. You don't have to make these challenging decisions alone. Your health care team, a social worker or faith-based adviser can provide support. LIVESTRONG also provides resources for caregivers to help you make the best decisions for your situation.
